Create your first event

An event is one wall with its own QR code, guest link and approval queue. You can run as many events as you like from one account.

Create the event

1. In your dashboard, click New event.
2. Organisation: if you run more than one, pick which one the event belongs to. Billing is per organisation.
3. Event Name: this shows on the guest page and on the big screen, so write it the way guests know it, for example "Amira & Sam's Wedding".
4. Event date and How many days?: the first day, and how many days guests can post. Free covers 1 day, Essential up to 3 and Signature up to 4. Each day runs until 4 AM the next morning. See Event dates, extra days and the lock.
5. Time zone: filled in from your device. Change it if your event is somewhere else.
6. Photos per Guest: choose 1 or 3. New events start on the Free plan, which allows up to 3. You can raise it after upgrading.
7. Wall Theme: pick one of the Themes, or a Brand template if you want to add your own logo and colours later. You can change it until your event starts.
8. Click Create Event. You land on the event page.

What you get straight away

• A guest link and QR code, plus a 6-character code for guests who can't scan, under Overview → Guest link & QR code.
• A private live wall link under Overview → Live wall link.
• The approval queue, from the Moderate button at the top of the page.

Your event starts as a Draft

New events start in Draft, so guests who scan early see "This event has not started accepting photos yet." It switches to Active by itself when your first day starts, or you can click Active under Overview → Event Status sooner. See Draft, Active and Ended.
